About the 2020 Problem<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The 2020 problem, drawn from recent cases and enforcement actions, was an advanced, complex, and nuanced hypothetical involving a fictitious company caught in the crossfire of numerous legal, regulatory, and compliance concerns. Issues of kickbacks, false claims, transparency of payments, and health care fraud are recurring themes throughout the problem. \u00a0Additionally, the themes of individual executive accountability and conspiracy were also present in many aspects of the hypothetical. The 2020 problem<\/a> and winning submission<\/a>\u00a0are available for review.<\/p>\n
